it's all in your head…
Head pounding, you regain consciousness in pitch darkness. You fumble briefly in your cold metal seat before realizing your hands are bound. The room around you stinks of bleach and disinfectant. An electrical buzz hums in the background. A chain rattles behind you... you're not alone. Before you can cry out, the electrical buzz gives way to a crackling intercom announcement: "Let the game begin."
Coming soon to Sydney CBD, Asylum is set to be Sydney's most twisted escape. A true test of wits... and sanity!

You can play Asylum at Escape This Sydney CBD, located at 630 George Street, Sydney NSW, 2000.
Escape This is eaily accessible via public transport, and is less than a 10 minute walk away from Town Hall station, with plenty of street and paid parking options nearby.
Come on down to Escape This and step into the terrifying asylum... if you dare!
Asylum has a difficulty rating of 8 out of 10. With complex puzzles, the focus is still on fun, interactivity, and immersiveness... but with some added challenge thrown in for good measure.
Asylum provides an outstanding balance between completing the game without too much frustration and giving players a thrilling experience. Learn more about our difficulty levels here.
ABSOLUTELY NOT! Asylum has been designed for adults with a horror theme. The absolute minimum age for players is 18 years, with no exceptions!
The easiest way to book Asylum is through our online booking widget.
Our website shows live availability and all bookings are confirmed immediately. It's the quickest and best way to secure your desired time slot.
At Escape This, all bookings are exclusive to your group. This has always been (and will remain to be) our policy before, during and after Covid.
If you want to be locked in a room with a group of people you have never met before (some people do!) then we recommend you try another escape room experience provider.
Absolutely, if you want to book multiple escape rooms, including Asylum, to start at the same time. Please use our multi-room booker for Escape This Sydney CBD.
You will be able to see availablilities, and book accordingly for all the rooms in our Sydney CBD Escape Room Center.
You'll have one hour from entering the padded cell to escape!
We recommend you arrive 15 minutes before your scheduled start time and if you allow for 15 minutes afterwards, to catch your breath and debrief, your whole experience will last around 90 minutes.
If, however, you are amongst the lucky few that escape Asylum then your time with us may be a little shorter!
Asylum can accommodate between 2 and 4 players. No more, no less.
Our group limits are set to optimise gameplay and ensure a truly immersive experience for all our guests. Fortunately for you, it is company policy to never compromise on your gameplay experience so these limits are NOT flexible!
If your group is larger than 4 players we suggest that you book multiple rooms to start at the same time and split your group across the rooms. Thus ensuring the very best experience for everyone in your group.
Spoken cues and clues are a key element of our escape rooms. Presently, these cues are only available in English, though we are working towards multi-language options.
To ensure the best escape experience in the meantime, we recommend that the majority of your player group should be fluent in English.
Asylum is a very challenging, not to mention EXTREME, escape room experience and we recommend that you already have some experience in escape rooms before attempting this room.
For first time escapers, we would recommend trying Pirates or The Wizards Chamber.
For the thrillseekers among you looking for a similarly high octane experience, we also offer horror escape rooms at Escape This Sydney CBD, including Cannibal and The Possession.
Like all escape rooms, the Asylum is a controlled lighting environment. It may feature periods of complete darkness and/or flashing lights. Similarly, you might experience confined spaces and/or jump scares during your escape. If you have any concerns or questions, please raise these with our Gamesmasters at check-in.
We will have have nine other rooms to choose from at our Sydney CBD escape rooms venue! These include
The Wizard's Chamber,
Cannibal,
Pirates, and others not yet announced. A full list of our planned rooms can be found on our
Escape This Sydney CBD center page.
We all have that certain someone who's super tricky to buy a gift for... but not with our Sydney escape room gift vouchers! Whether it's their 18th birthday or their 80th, a last-minute anniversary gift, an employee reward, an out there Valentine's Day gift, or you're just getting the Christmas shopping done extra early, treat 'em to an Escape This gift voucher by ordering HERE.
